(He stopped again, wincing as he heard the tone of her voice.. knowing that he hurt her so much was worse than all the pain he had endured in the hands of the enemy. He had seen this woman make it through a nearly fatal bullet wound with a teasing spirit, but he had the ability to make her cry with his words alone.) Damnit, Haylie.. (He said in a soft tone, turning to look at her with pain etched in his gaze.) I was scared to death that years down the road you would realize what a loser you married and that I would end up a bitter and empty old man like my dad. (He rubbed a hand over his face, hating the emotions he felt when he thought of his dad, the intense fear and the strong loathing.) They denied our marriage lisense because my father decided he didn't want to provide the information the government needed.. and while I was waiting for our commander to forward the information over so I could get the papers quicker I indulged my fears and ended up in jail when I ran a red light trying to get to the church. (He had spewed out all the information in rapid succession as though if he stopped he wouldn't get the nerve up to finish.. and when he was done, he stood there bared to her and chewed his lower lip. Waiting for the executioner was a damn lonely business.. but that was how he felt at that moment, knowing that she had the power then to cut him down should she feel so inclined.. and the worst of it was that he couldn't blame her if she did.)

  - She sighed deeply, shaking her head as she watched him go upstairs, apperantly that first meeting didn't go as well as she had hoped it would though really, realistically, she had known it wouldn't. She smiled at Dag before she excused herself to go upstairs, making sure that he didn't drown himself in port. Without knocking, she just stepped in, heading over to sit in the chair across from him. "It's going to take time, you know. Neither one of you are going to just get over the pain and hurt the first time you see one another..." She let out a soft breath before she picked up the bag of marshmellows she had brought up with her and pulled one out, handing it to him with a sparkling gaze that spoke of sympathy and genuine care for this stranger that she hardly knew. There was just something about him that tugged at her heart and she wanted things to work out so badly for him... (NT) -- Addie, 01:21:44 02/24/06 Fri
